This article in the New York Times advances a question that has been out there from the get go of the bizarre relationship that the most powerful man in the (for now) free world has with the most powerful man of the (current and future) unfree world.

Former CIA Director John Brennan is not a man who uses words lightly. In this Huffington Post article, Brennan is quoted, “Trump would take his “rightful place as a disgraced demagogue in the dustbin of history” once “the full extent” of his “venality, moral turpitude, and political corruption becomes known,” Brennan wrote. “You may scapegoat Andy McCabe,” he added. “But you will not destroy America… America will triumph over you.”

These powerful words, coming from someone who, more than anyone, had access to information on the Putin/Trump saga, should not be taken lightly. As the NYT Editorial Board challenges, it’s high time for Trump to prove Brennan's words wrong!
